Since ancient times, Roosters in Tonga are considered quite special. They are popularly referred to as messengers. Every dawn is heralded by their call and so is each dusk. Roosters also stand for authenticity, courage and strength in the ‘friendly islands‘. “Listen O coastlands, to Me, And take heed, you peoples from afar! The LORD has called Me from the womb; From the matrix of My mother He has made mention of My name.” (Isaiah 49:1)

When GOD made us HE said it is “Very Good”. Of everything HE created, we are HIS most cherished and treasured creations. This rooster is the artist Ilaisa Latu’s representation of individuals who are boldly proclaiming this truth about themselves.

When a Rooster crows, the others tend to be alert and listen. The Roosters in this artwork stand for the men of Tonga, who are being challenged by JESUS to be courageous and embrace their responsibilities as males, as husbands, as fathers, as brothers, as sons and in any other role that they have; first in the family and then elsewhere. They are being called to do so completely and whole heartedly.

“Surely you shall call a nation you do not know, And nations who do not know you shall run to you, Because of the LORD your God, And the Holy One of Israel.” (Isaiah 55:5 )

The crossing over of an individual from unending darkness, into perpetual light. The journey of one breaking away from the bonds of slavery and running into the open arms of freedom and purification through the blood of JESUS.

“Therefore if the Son makes you free, you shall be free indeed.” (John 8:36)

As the most “superior’ beings, mankind today is ruling the earth. However, though we are ‘surging’ towards astounding levels of advancement in all spheres, our responsibility towards the ‘lesser’ beings in our world remains horribly unfulfilled. We have encroached into the habitat, the homes of both acquatic as well as terrestrial life. One such is the marine Turtle. With their environments on the brink of destruction, it won’t be long before they are forced to step out of their natural surroundings in search of a place called home’.

Being in sync is easy when everything is going your way. The Real dance however, begins when turbulence hits your life, and you and your partner are caught unawares. The beats you hear, the rhythm that you now follow are probably not what you want, and don’t live upto your expectations. It’s at this point that a married couple can choose to either stick together and learn to do the ultimate dance in unison, or just head off looking for a new partner, and a new song.
